Beretta 688 Performance Sporting

The Beretta 688 Performance Sporting is designed for shooters who want a more competition-specific platform than a conventional field-derived over-and-under without stepping straight into Beretta’s upper competition tier. Its receiver is based on Beretta’s proven 680 architecture but is made wider and more substantial to give the gun the steadiness and visual presence expected from a dedicated sporting model.

Laminated stock and forend components provide excellent dimensional stability and a distinctive competition appearance. Steelium barrels with Optima-Choke HP compatibility support consistent pattern performance, while the competition rib and available adjustable-comb configurations help the shooter build a repeatable sight picture and mount.

• Dedicated sporting-clay over-and-under
• Wider, competition-weight 680-based receiver
• Stable laminated stock and forend
• Steelium barrels with Optima-Choke HP system
• Standard and adjustable-comb specifications
• 28, 30 and 32 inch barrel options

The 688 is particularly compelling for the developing competition shooter who wants Beretta engineering, a stable target-focused feel and meaningful adjustability at a price below the 694.
